GTI / ED30 Rivalry

[Simonet]

Lots of posts on here about rivalry between the Standard GTi and ED30 but this morning I had some complete t055er come rolling up behind me and Flash me out of the way.

Now IF i'd been sitting in the outside lane on my own (two lane motorway) no problems, BUT I was overtaking a line of traffic at marginally over the national speed limit, and I wasn't going to speed up OR pull in for him to gain 10 seconds. He was in a Bright Red 5 Door 05 Plate Gti. I don't usually get wound up but he annoyed me. I did think about jumping out behind him and PUSHING his standard Gti with my lights on FULL but I counted to 10 and let him go on his merry way.

KNOB!

lol complete tool !

If there was traffic infront you, I would have just sat there as you cant go any faster, would wind him up even more.

Happens with drivers of any car.

t0sser in a merc did this to me the other day.

My thoughts are always - why is your journey more important than mine, get stuffed!  Then I think - well, you're obviously not happy with my overtaking, so I'll slow down and go back to other lane, where I was before I started the move.  Winds them up nicely!

I so know where you coming from with this! I've had it a couple of times, its so annoying, I remember a guy in a porker attempting it - 3 lane motorway, heavy traffic, me in outside lane slowly overtaking at around 60ish mph. Blokes on his lights, waving his arm (convertible), then pulls into the middle lane and tries to undertake, but can't 'cos of all the cars!! WHY!!!??

i was in my gf's ka!! and some big 4x4 was bhind us up my ass. hooted at me too. so i thought f that,, went even slower... they then decided to over take!! so i put my foot down, couldnt over take and ended up pulling in bhind me.. made me laugh them mad.. great KA power!

think were all probably guilty of this at some stage of our lives....

anyway f**k it, put your brakes on, slow right down ( this is hypothetical as its techincally roadrage and probably illegal), encourage him with a few wayne kerr signs and then signal him to come off..

then smack him round the head with your wheel brace.

job done, and he wont do it again..(or anything else for that matter as you'll probably have killed him)

failing that, let it wash over you...he's probably a kerhunt with nowhere to go and is trying to get there quickly...sit back, relax and be comfortable knowing what you know...

now sleeep...

glad it's not just me then!

Have to agree, it's not just GTi Drivers, just made it slightly more contraversial!! (Afternoon Phil  )

Yeah but sometimes its the other way around, your'll get some n0b sat in the fast lane in there big car  not overtaking anything, but because there car cost £40,000 and they are doing 70 its ok. God they do my head in.

Totally agree, I'm the first to flash if they are just sat there with loads of room in the other lane..... it's when there is NOWHERE to go and the fact that I should move over, slow down behind a slower car, then pull back out behind them! See I'm still angry!!
